Kill the Dragon

# 21 Citadel

The human civilization has been annihilated. The satellite that crashed outside the sky has been cut off, and all communication between the worlds has been lost. Isolated humans lived in small communities and snuck underground, avoiding minions and dragons.

Humans are only a few minutes away from extinction. Everyone has foreseen. The defeated await the death of the species.

“There are no minions. ”

A group of men open the manhole lid. The city is in ruins. Traces of destruction remain dark.

“Come on, move it! ”

The men rush in. Their clothes are shabby. Everyone carries a weapon, but there seems to be no proper soldier. Nations and governments have vanished. People held their guns and defended themselves.

“Yes!”

The men have entered the market. There are boxes in the warehouse, though you can wipe out the shelf corners. They packed canned goods and retort foods. I packed whatever was in my bag.

Humans went underground to survive. But to survive, I had to make it to the ground. There were necessities to survive on the ground. It wasn't as safe as the basement, but it was better than the ground.

“Please, I'm fine again today. ”

The watchman mutters and rolls his eyes around. If a Minion catches you, it's over. With their strength, a few minions can't beat them. I just didn't want it to show up.

“It's going to be okay. Look, it's a nice day. ”

There is a rumor that Minions appear when the weather is dim. It was not that there was no evidence at all. When the Dimensional Gate opens, the weather becomes more severe like a hurricane. But the weather has nothing to do with Minions. Civilians can't possibly know that.

“Let's go back. ”

The men who came out with the necessities said. They carry their bags and look around carefully. It was a long way back. I had to go far at once. It's because there were no more necessities near the shelter where they lived. The risk of increasingly exploring grew.

“Phew, Phew. I need to rest. The bag is heavy.”

“But I'll eat it when I get back today. ”

“Ham, too. ”

The men were all dried up. Proof that they are suffering from such food difficulties. It was a great comfort to them that they could eat well in a short while.

“Hey, what's that? ”

The man who was going ahead found something. It was a man who fell to the floor.

“Minions?”

“No, not a minion. It's a person.”

They found one person. I was a very suspicious person.

“Leather cloak? A spear made of bones? He looks like some kind of primitive. ”

No matter how rough the world gets, traces of civilization remain. It's not enough to go back to being a primitive savage. It was a very exotic look for modern people. Plus, the opponent has a hot beard and a splash of hair.

“Looks like Robinson Cruz. ”

“He's still alive. I think he's unconscious. ”

“Let's leave it alone. Our way is in a hurry.... ”

The men were divided. They were overwhelmed right away. I couldn't afford to take a man down. Everyone is carrying a heavy burden.

“But... if you leave it like this, you'll die. ”

“What do we know? I can't afford to care about anyone else in the same situation. ”

“You can't let a living person die. ”

“I think so, too. You know you're gonna die, and we're just gonna leave him here? ”

“Damn, let's vote, then. This isn't Russia. This is America. ”

Seven men voted: 4: 3 to save their lives.

“Ha, this is crazy. Really. Throw away the food to save a stranger? ”

The man who argued against it said. The men left their baggage one by one. Instead, I carried the man dressed as a primitive. No, I tried to carry him.

The coup d 'etang!

The primitive man was extremely heavy. He wasn't even a downer. He was heavy.

“What are you doing? ”

“It's so heavy! Like some bone is made of iron... I need to hear it for two. ”

“I can't help it. Slurp.”

Dumped two people's luggage. The Dissidents have gone mad. With two-man cargo, Shelters have days' worth of food.

“We have to save people first. ”

“Here comes the adult soldier. ”

They tied their top clothes to two sticks and made something to carry. Afterwards, I mounted the primitive man and moved on.

“No matter how hard it is to eat, we can't let people die. I'm sorry. I'll reinforce the next search party. ”

The man who had insisted on it said to the Dissidents, They arrive at the underground shelter before dark. Shelter residents greet the search party. The women and children were waiting for the fire.

Lee was dizzy, a primitive man. It was hard to open my eyes. The aftereffects are severe. My head aches. I barely opened my eyes while moaning.

“Oh, I'm up! He's awake! ”

One of the little ones looked at Lee Han and said. Lee has not been properly aware of the surrounding situation. However, the long-trained body moves automatically. He jumps to his feet. I reach out and stutter around. There are no weapons. He quickly steps back and blinks. It was as swift as a beast.

“Shit, did you see that? What the hell is he doing? ”

People utter profanity and raise their weapons. They surrounded Yihan.

“Ah, ah. ”

Lee Han's voice did not come out immediately. I haven't talked to anyone in a long time.

“Hey, we saved your life! By giving up our food! ”

Ihan is a mess. He speaks.

‘You're back. ’

I felt like I was going to cry. I was glad to see the person. He sits down helplessly.

“I... have no intention of attacking. I was embarrassed.”

Lee said, stammering. He raises his arm and lets out his palm. It was a no-resistance gesture that worked everywhere. Then people placed their weapons at ease.

“I thought you were a Neanderthal, but you talk. Why was he lying in the middle of the city? ”

He spoke as if interrogated. Lee Han looked suspicious. It was natural to doubt.

“Believe it or not, I came down from the wild. I was ashamed, but I fell down hungry. ”

Lee was roughly confused. Even if I tell them the truth, they won't understand. People still haven't raised their suspicions.

“We saved your life, but there are children and women here. We don't want strangers hitting us. I mean, what if he's playing a prank on us? ”

“I know. Thank you for saving me.”

Lee's head quickly returned. Just looking at the situation around me, I had a rough idea of what the Earth looked like.

‘Humanity has been defeated. But there are survivors. This is underground.’

I needed more information Are there any arcs left? What about the other second generation reinforcements? A lot of questions crossed my mind.

“I'll get some food for now. My name is Dave Franklin. Call me Franko.”

Franko was a middle-aged man with gentle eyes. As a university professor, he was Shelter's spiritual compass. He was also a member of the search party who cast a vote to save Lee Han.

“Ithan. It's easier to call me hahn. ”

“You're Asian. Hard to tell. With the beard and the head. ”

Lee found out suddenly that his beard was very long. I didn't care much about it alone.

Lee had dinner with the Shelters. People looked at this strangely. External entry is rare. Communication between communities has long since been severed.

‘If you're a strong man, you'd better have one more. ’

Many men lost their lives. Shelter needed more men. Franko saved her for a reason. Of course, there was good faith in saving people.

Lee had eaten a lot of food. Arc's second-generation bikers needed high calories and were all macrophages because of the reinforcement procedure.

“Hmm.”

“Cuckoo.”

Some men showed discomfort. Today was the day the search party came back, so there was a lot of food. However, this food was more than normal. Besides, he's a stranger. Obviously, I didn't see it.

‘Oops.’

Lee is quick to notice. I quickly read the eyes around me. I put down the bowl.

‘In difficult situations, of course, food is a sensitive matter. It's not barbaric. ’

I know how sensitive this food shortage is. He blames his indiscretion.

When Lee let go of the bowl, the people's faces opened. Lee looked around.

‘About six, 70 children in total. ’

There were underground shelters everywhere in the United States. Some of them were state-of-the-art, while others were renovated by individuals. It's because everyone felt anxious because they had been in a dragon war once. There are fewer than 10 people in that shelter. They lived in groups of hundreds.

‘It's a pretty well-built shelter. It's like a maze. ’

The clumsy shelter has long been spotted and disappeared by minions. Only shelters with some defensive capabilities and hiding capabilities survived.

“There's plenty of water, so you can eat whatever you want. Barbarian.”

One of the guys said sarcastically. Lee only nodded. I didn't mean to provoke them.

‘I'm an uninvited guest. I need to understand. ’

Lee went into the shower with someone else. Inside were the shower facilities and tools.

“Hmm."

Lee looked in the mirror and sighed. There is a wool beam standing.

“Something's fishy to me. ”

Lee immediately shaved his beard and showered. The beard and the cachman are swept down the drain.

‘How long has it been? ’

The time spent here does not match the time spent in the past. Even if Lee Han has stayed a year in the past, it may be 10 years later here. Lee intuitively understood the complexity of experiencing a fragmented memory of silver.

“It shouldn't have been long ago. ”

Lee Han muttered.

‘How much time did I spend there? At least a year or two? ’

Lee had given up the date century. I just spent every day over and over again. It was a time when there was no concept of time.

Yuck.

Lee finally rinsed his body and left the shower. I washed my body with a towel.

“Who?”

The Shelter looks at this and tilts his head.

“I'm here today. ”

“Bird. Younger than I thought, no. Maybe it's because he's Asian. ”

The Shelter man looks at Ethan and stutters. In his view, Lee Han was a young man whose remains were still buried.

Lee took a handful of hair and cut his thighs.

“Hmm, neat. ”

Lee Han praised himself. Looking at the mirror, it was much cleaner and cooler than before.

The shelters' eyes changed as they became more presentable. Their gaze became softer. Lee Han went around helping people with packing, cleaning dishes, and so on. Lee asked a question while talking to them.

‘It's been three years. ’

It was three years after Lee Han disappeared. There was no other useful information. There were only civilians here in the Shelter. No one knew about Arc or World Politics.

"No, I have to say, it's been three years, and we're still human. ’

Humans survived three years after the collapse of all systems. Survived by those dreadful dragons and minions.

Woof.

Lee Han used his cognitive powers in the assigned room. The clock was floating. His eyes blaze blue.

‘Be.’

Lee smiled a little. Psychic ability has returned.
